Original Note:
This is blatantly false. The incident was a hostage rescue mission, not an attempt to commit a massacre. The vehicle used was not an aid truck (despite Hamas claiming so), but a white Mercedes van disguised as a Hamas vehicle. It is unclear how many civilians were killed. https://edition.cnn.com/2024/06/10/middleeast/inside-israels-hostage-rescue-intl-dst/index.html https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cp334z7rxxmo
